Anorectal Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Phenotypes and Functional Patterns

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The aim of this study was to characterize specific physiologic defects in anorectal dysfunction in systemic sclerosis (SSc) using anorectal manometry (ARM), evaluate associations with gastrointestinal (GI) and extraintestinal clinical phenotypes, and explore potential serologic markers for risk stratification.

Biotic and abiotic controls on co-occurring nitrogen cycling processes in shallow Arctic shelf sediments

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Arctic continental shelves could store a significant amount of nitrogen, yet the specific nitrogen transformation pathways in these sediments remain unknown. Using nitrogen tracers, McTigueet al.

An equatorward force acting on large floating ice masses: Polfluchtkraft

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2017
This study reviews the effects of a force acting upon ice shelves and icebergs arising from the oblateness of the Earth's geoid and the displacement between the center of mass and the center of buoyancy for an object floating on water. The force has been

Multi-proxy evidence for sea level fall at the onset of the Eocene-Oligocene transition

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Continental-scale expansion of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet during the Eocene-Oligocene Transition (EOT) is one of the largest non-linear events in Earth’s climate history.

New Magnetic compilation and interpretation of the Bay of Biscay and surrounding continental shelves

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021
Producing accurate structural maps is a pre-requisite to unravel the tectonic evolution of a region. For this purpose, magnetic anomaly maps are helpful data sets for the identification and mapping of geological features.

Understanding the Burden of Orofacial Involvement and Patient Treatment Preferences in Systemic Sclerosis: Results From a Large International Survey

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Orofacial manifestations are significantly impactful in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) yet remain understudied, with no dedicated clinical guidelines to inform their management. Methods An international online survey comprised38 questions addressing orofacial manifestations of SSc, including patients’ confidence in their treating ...

Residence Time and Transformation of Warm Circumpolar Deep Water on the Antarctic Continental Shelf

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Inflow of warm modified Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) onto the Antarctic continental shelf and into ice shelf cavities is a key driver of Antarctic ice shelf mass loss.

Sky‐Directional Radiative Cooling Meta‐Films for Daylighting Windows

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A geometry‐mediated microprism meta‐film enables transparent, sky‐directional radiative cooling for daylighting windows. By decoupling control of visible transmittance from mid‐infrared emissivity, ground‐emitted heat absorption is suppressed while skyward heat dissipation is enhanced.

Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...

Sea gravity measurement in the Antarctic Research Expedition

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1982
Sea gravity measurements on board the icebreaker FUJI during the 22nd Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition conducted from November 1980 to April 1981 were very successful with almost no lack of measurements throughout the cruise.
